ラスニーブスのおすすめランニングルート

Take your time while hiking here. The views are beautiful.

The hiking trail from the visitor center was closed (early February 2026), but the waterfall was accessible.

At the edge of the caldera, at an altitude of approximately 2,400 meters, a number of telescopes are lined up at Roque de los Muchachos: optical and infrared night-vision telescopes, solar telescopes, and instruments for high-energy astrophysics. We took part in a guided tour and highly recommend it. It's essential to book online in advance from home; spontaneous bookings on-site are usually not possible.

The Roque de los Muchachos Observatory (ORM) boasts an impressive and photogenic telescope array. Over 20 telescopes are set up here, exploring the universe. The ORM is one of the largest observatories in the world. Nowhere else will you feel so close to the stars.

From the Los Tilos Visitor Center, you'll need to hike steadily uphill for about 2.5 km through the laurel forest along a wide forest road to reach the Mirador Espigón Atravesado viewpoint. The last stretch of the trail leads you along a narrow ridge secured with a railing. And here you can already get a sense of the view that awaits you. The viewpoint clings to the rock face like an eagle's nest. Above and below you, the impenetrable canopy of the laurel forest stretches across the steep cliffs and down into the deep ravines. You might even have a chance to see all the way to the Atlantic Ocean. Only about 4-5 people can fit on this viewpoint at a time, so you might have to eat your lunch somewhere else 😊.

Especially in the northeast of La Palma, the laurel forest appears in some places as an impenetrable primeval forest, crisscrossing the steep lava slopes and deep ravines. It seems as if there are countless places here that no human has ever set foot in. The forest, enveloped in mosses and lichens, has a mysterious air. Only a few paths, but they are easily walkable, lead through Los Tilos.

Beautiful view into the caldera basin

A beautiful, but nameless viewpoint. The view is breathtaking, with one of the Caldera de Taburiente and the other of the cliffs and mountains.
